Bro I watched the same wrestlemania as you

80,000 people into every match

The show included snoop dogg, lil Uzi vert, George kittle, Stephen a smith on the preshow etc.

show was popping

You honestly sound like one of those brehs who only show up in the wrestling thread on mania night with no idea about storylines or the wrestlers but will give your input on how bad the show was and it’s not the same but everyone actually enjoyed it
Yeah I tune in every once in awhile and shyt still managed to not hold my attention for a WM show

They definitely should have went on last that was the match of the night. the thing is that Uso's versus Sammy and Kevin had a better storyline coming into it
Don't let the second half of that match fool you into thinking they deserved the main event spot. It took quite a while for the crowd to get into it, and you could hear how much the crowd was still excited for the tag match. If they had gone on last the crowd would've been dead and some would've left.
To me that echoes the sentiment of another poster in here. Right now, Cena doesn't believe there's anything sort of intangible/difference-making quality about Theory that says he has next. Because we've seen Cena go the extra mile for others.
I think ya'll are overthinking this. Cena just had an off night, and it just happened to be on the biggest night in wrestling.

Cody hasn't done anything wrong in my eyes. Of course Seth has been there..carried the WWE in 2015 after Bryan got injured. Roman and Becky are who they run to though. They depend on Bianca too these days. But Seth gets paid alot so he ain't falling too far.

So he has an attitude problem with Cody Rhodes..hmmm



Seth should have been smarter with his. CAWdy made the right business move every step of the way and was always in the right place at the right time. Seth thing about always being there and always being available is what hurt him. Took him years to recover from the Fiend feud.

I think it's a combination of a lot of things:

1.- The business being "exposed" and fans knowing that what these people do in the ring is hard as fukk. A celebrity that has been following wrestling before is much more knowledgeable about what wrestling is all about.

2.- Social media has created a lot of self awareness so a celebrity that follows wrestling understands that if they don't want to get clowned by the same circle/bubble they are a part of (wrestling fandom), they have to put their work in.

3.- Some celebrities don't give a fukk about 1 & 2. Others do care but just can't do the physical part of the job so they get more limited roles (like Snoop). And recently, WWE has hit the jackpot finding incredibly popular people that are willing to put the work and either realize their dream (Bad Bunny, pre full time contract Ronda Rousey, Pat) or just be good at it and show off on social media and get a good check (Logan Paul).

4.- For almost a decade now, WWE has let their talent do almost whatever the hell they want in the ring -that doesn't involve blood- so both the company and the fans are used to seeing a lot of spectacular high flying and big spots. That makes it "easier" for these capable celebrities to come in and do spots that are impressive for non-wreslting people, but it's not some ground breaking, never seen before, stuff that will "expose the business" or "take the spot from someone else".
All of this is true but you also left out the actual most important part. Them nikkas rich as fukk:russ: when you have the type of fame and celebrity those three have you have time to learn how to work if you REALLY want to

When Logan Paul decided he wanted to take the wrestling shyt serious he had HHH ship a ring to his fukkin house:mjlol: everything about that situation sounds rich as fukk:mjlol:

Hunter's right... how the fukk are Bad Bunny, McAfee and Logan Paul so good? I think it's dedication. Their work ethic is uncanny.


Historically pro wrestlers are people who weren't good enough to make it in pro sports. That has changed over the last few years as better athletes are getting into wrestling, but still. Like McAfee was an NFL player (punter, but still) - he's gonna be more athletic than most of the roster. Logan Paul was never a pro athlete but he's still got freak athleticism for a cac, same thing he can do more athletically than 90% of the roster.
